Manchester City take on Arsenal in a blockbuster match for the 2026 FA Community Shield final. Manchester City and Arsenal meet at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff for the 2026 FA Community Shield final, with kickoff set for 10:00 a.m ET. The match doubles as a milestone occasion for City, marking Enzo Maresca’s first competitive match in charge of the club since replacing Pep Guardiola in the dugout. Arsenal qualified as reigning Premier League champions after their title-winning campaign last season, while City earned their place by winning the FA Cup in May, beating Chelsea at Wembley for their eighth FA Cup title in club history. Recent history slightly favors City in this particular fixture, with two wins in the last five head-to-head meetings between the sides. Arsenal, however, hold the more recent edge in the Community Shield specifically, having won the last time these two clubs met in this exact competition back in 2023, on penalties after a 1-1 draw. Both sides arrive with contrasting preseason form. Arsenal posted a mixed 2-2-1 record in their warm-up matches, including defeats to Real Betis and Borussia Dortmund, though they did beat Girona 4-1. City, meanwhile, looked sharper in their own preparation, beating Atlético Madrid 3-1 in their final tune-up, with Omar Marmoush scoring twice in that win. Just one week to go until the FA #CommunityShield 🤩Who will start their season on a high, @Arsenal or @ManCity? 🏆 pic.twitter.com/T8NcfFyx6Q— Emirates FA Cup (@EmiratesFACup) August 9, 2026 What happens if Manchester City beat Arsenal A win would hand Maresca a trophy in his very first match at the helm, giving City an ideal start to the new era and a psychological edge heading into the Premier League season opener. It would also snap Arsenal’s recent run of success in this exact fixture, avenging their 2023 Community Shield defeat to the Gunners. What happens if Manchester City and Arsenal draw The Community Shield doesn’t allow for extra time. Any match still level after 90 minutes goes straight to a penalty shootout to determine the winner, with both teams still credited with a draw on the official record despite one side lifting the trophy. What happens if Manchester City lose to Arsenal A loss would see Arsenal successfully defend the Community Shield and continue their recent dominance over City in this fixture, while also handing Maresca a defeat in his first game in charge — an inauspicious start to his tenure, even if the Community Shield itself carries more symbolic weight than competitive significance heading into the new season.
Even as Celtic have grown from a shell of a club in the early 90s into the financial powerhouse of the Scottish game, old habits have tended to die hard.
Lukaku is far from the first this summer to go through this welcoming process, following Leandro Trossard, Mason Greenwood, Dusan Vlahovic and Mohamed Salah in Turkey.
Newly-signed winger Haissem Hassan says he grew up watching Celtic play in the Champions League and is determined to make the club a regular presence at the top level of European competition. The 24-year-old, who impressed this summer at the World Cup for Egypt, has joined Martin O'Neill's side as the Champions League play-off first leg with LASK looms next Wednesday.
Manager Martin O'Neill is backing new arrival Haissem Hassan to "glow" and create "havoc" at Celtic, while the Egypt winger has described his move from Real Oviedo as the "perfect moment". O'Neill revealed that Oviedo rejected an approach in January, with Hassan now ready to link up with fellow summer recruits Kasper Hogh and Camilo Duran.
Lucas Herrington says it is "a dream come true" to join Hull City and be given the opportunity to play Premier League football. The 18-year-old Australia defender has signed a five-year deal with the Tigers and becomes their ninth summer transfer. Herrington made two appearances for his country during the World Cup and missed a spot-kick when they were beaten by Egypt on penalties in the last 32.
Celtic's new £9million man Haissem Hassan last night vowed to put the Parkhead outfit on the map in Europe and looks sure to have German playmaker Mika Baur with him to take on the continent's best.
As Ronaldo heads towards 1,000 career goals, the league plans to lift the standard of Saudi Arabian football, not just the clubsThere is no Mohamed Salah in the new Saudi Pro League season that kicks off on Thursday and while the era of the ageing megastar is ending, there is still the strong chance the next few months will be dominated by Cristiano Ronaldo. The 41-year-old is 24 shy of 1,000 career goals and, with the five-time Ballon d’Or winner having scored 102 in 107 league games for Al-Nassr, the milestone could – should – be reached this season.Huge as that will be, just how it fits into the plans of the league is unclear. This is the fourth season since the spending started with $957m splashed out in the summer of 2023. It produced thousands of articles, dozens of international broadcasting deals and untold numbers of people worldwide sporting the yellow CR7 Al-Nassr shirt. Now, though, the focus is on getting a little more value for money and lifting not just the clubs, but the standard of Saudi Arabian football in general. Continue reading...
